Whether you’re an event planner, a marketing agent, or part of a party hire company, you’ll know that along with a main stage, festival tent structures such as stretch tents, often form the primary centerpiece for any successful event.
Not only do they offer a welcome respite for partygoers and guests from the elements, but they also let attendees know exactly where the action is taking place (and where they need to be). However, in some cases, they also provide an elevated space for people to decompress and enjoy some downtime. Think lounges, chill-out zones, and food areas.
For decades, the choice of festival tent structures has primarily been relegated to the traditional square and boxed shape marquees, and only in one color – white! And if you were lucky, perhaps you even had the option to add in some stripes. Fortunately, times are changing, and the good news is that event and festival organizers have access to new coverage options, including the modern-day stretch tent.
Introducing a whole new style
If you’re still new to the world of stretch tents, this concept is quickly earning its rightful place as the go-to outdoor coverage option for a wide range of events, workshops, festivals, and product activations. This head-turning stretch tents option offers more freedom in terms of style and provides an elevated experience for guests without all the unnecessary bells and whistles.
Anything but boxy, our stretch tents (crafted from heat-protective UV-stabilized fabric) are available in nearly any shape, size or color and bring a whole new dimension to that outdoor tent aesthetic you just won’t find elsewhere. If we can try and put it into words, the shape of a stretch tents adds a sense of whimsy and intrigue — somewhat futuristic but also slightly bohemian, but without being completely over the top. You can also style it how you want, incorporating lighting, décor, art, and furniture.
Creating community spirit
Festivals and events thrive when the energy is buzzing, and the crowd feels connected to their environment. Creating that energy (which people will remember long after they leave) generally boils down to the music, entertainment, and overall organization, which also includes your chosen festival tent.
With the live music industry estimated to be worth $31 Billion Worldwide by 2022, it’s important to get these elements right, particularly your outdoor coverage. That said, stretch tents provide a secure and reliable space for connections to be made, moments to be shared, and experiences to be felt. Unlike traditional PVC marquees, which can feel stiff and heavy, stretch tents conjure a feeling of freedom, fun, and simplicity.
During the day, natural light diffuses through the fabric, creating a soft and enticing ambiance where people want to gather together. At night, these structures take on a life of their own. Add a few subtle lights and interiors, and you’ll have the ultimate festival tent space where partygoers or attendees can escape everyday life in an extraordinary way.
